Thanks ali - she looks really good - lot of work. I am going to put a readme in with the anime files so that in the future, I will know where she came from
I'm not ready for something that good yet. Still working on the bone animation tutorials.
That's about the level of detail I want to get to, +plus shadows, and animate. Not sure if it's possible/practical yet. I'm guessing no since I haven't seen anything of that level animated.
Greykid's stuff comes really close. La Reine Soleil looks great but it doesn't seem clear how much of that was actually done in AS.
I want to push AS as far as it can go as long as it stays within a reasonable quality to time ratios. Sometimes I think just using a 3D program or animating frame by frame would be faster for high detail sophisticated animation. Most pros and seasoned vector animators figured this already, no? /ramble
